I Am Redeemed

~San, Healing Rain to the Nations

Have you experienced the freedom of Christ?  Has God ever rescued you from danger or protected you from the furry of the storm?  Have you been set free from the prison of drugs and alcohol?  Has the Lord ever provided in an unexplainable way?  Have you experienced God’s miraculous healing power?  Have you experienced the redemption and the salvation of the Lord?

Then you have been Redeemed!!  Lift you voice of triumph and give all Glory to God Almighty, for His loving devotion, faithfulness and kindness endures forever!  I say Stand UP and….

 “Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, for he has redeemed you from the hand of the enemy!!”  (Psalm 107:2)

 Always be prayed up, eager and ready to share your testimony.  The world around you needs to hear what God has done in your life!   YOUR personal Testimony of God’s goodness is a powerful tool!  So come on shake off your heavy chains….wipe away every stain….You are not who you used to be…..You have been Redeemed!!  Give the Lord a Shout to GLORY!!  Share with the world….Let the Redeemed of the Lord tell their story — those He redeemed from the hand of the foe!  Amen!! ~ Healing Rain to the Nations

Daddy’s Arms

written by:  Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

Just as me, I’m sure you too have experienced disappointment, and rejection by others at times, which certainly makes it hard to ever trust again. But I do know this one thing…”God is Faithful”!!

When I place my faith and trust in the Lord, I know I will never be disappointed! HE has proven His love & devotion to me time and time again. He is so very true to His Word & will never abandon those who really want to know HIM!

So don’t be afraid to run to HIM like a Daddy. His arms are open wide and there you will find a heart filled with love that you can trust!

The eternal God is (my) refuge, and underneath are (His) everlasting arms. (Deuteronomy 33:27)

…I am the Lord; those who hope in me will not be disappointed.” (Isaiah 49:23)

“The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. (Psalm 9:9-10)

Faith Exercised

written by ~ Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

Faith is like a muscle, it must be exercised to grow!  The body’s Vital Organs and Skeletal System are protected by muscles.  But, by not taking action and failing to exercise leaves one in a weakened condition, rendered helpless and vulnerable to accident & disease.

The same applies to your Faith! Yes the Word says…”Faith as small as a Mustard seed”, but remember… When that Faith is NOT exercised it leaves you exposed in a weakened condition, defenseless and susceptible to the attacks of the enemy!

So be aware…”The enemy prowls around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour”!  As the devil stalks, he is looking for “the weak in Faith”!  The Word says…”Resist the enemy & HE shall flee”, but without exercised faith, you are in a weakened condition and no match for the enemy!

Resistance is found through exercised Faith in Jesus Christ.  Faith is exercised on a daily basis and strengthened through “Prayer, Worship & The Word”.  You see, the Lord desires that you really know HIM!  Listen—HE is calling…“Draw near to ME and I will draw nearer to you.”   And as you yield to the beckoning of HIS still small voice…tarry there.  And there in HIS presence ‘talk to HIM and Listen’…As you will begin experiencing HIS ever abiding love, your Faith will soar to new heights!

An example of this kind of faith is Abraham…He spent time with the Lord.  He did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” (Romans 4:19-22)

The Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen your (faith) and protect you from the evil one. (2 Thessalonians 3:3)  Just as Abraham, may you come to recognize the significance of exercising your faith…by spending time at His feet!  For it is there our faith is strengthened and we are equipped for the battle!  Keep in mind…The Lord does not force Himself upon anyone…it is a free choice.  As for me… “Christ” has become an absolute necessity in my life!!

Pray, Wait, Trust…”Dear Lord, Help me to exercise the Faith that I have been given so that I will grow stronger each day.”  

Be blessed by this beautiful song….

1 Pet 2.24

Seeking “The Healer”

Written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

Throughout the years of my journey of silent suffering, I have found God’s Holy Word is Powerful, Tried and True. And yes, God is so very faithful to HIS Promises! Believe me, this is so very important when all else fails you and there is nothing else to cling to!

So if you find yourself in the midst of a faith challenging situation, I encourage you to be quick to run to the Father’s arms. Affirm your trust in His Holy Word and believing He holds your best at heart! Then begin laying down all your thoughts and idea’s about “healing” and surrender to a deep “personal relationship” with Christ.

His Word says “Seek Me, you will find ME, if you seek me with ALL your heart”! So as you cry out to the Lord, take time to listen closely for that still small voice. You will find the Lord is tenderhearted and compassionate and patiently waiting to talk to you….After-all He is very familiar with pain and suffering!

He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53)

Therefore, I encourage you to Worship the Lord in all His grandeur and majesty, for it is so important to let your focus be upon the “Healer”, not the healing!! And when you open your heart and give HIM all authority to be glorified in you and through you…don’t be surprised at what you may experience! As you stand amazed in His presence, you too will find God honors a seeking heart as He begins to reveal His Power and Glory in a special way. For when we approach the Throne of Grace, seeking “The Healer”… Guess What!…..Miracles Happen!!

He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”  (1 Peter 2:24)

Jesus is indeed the Great Healer, He is the Great Physician!

May you be abundantly blessed by this beautiful song…. ~San

HRN Psalm 65.8

Experiencing God

written by: San, Healing Rain to the Nations

What magnificent beauty our God has created for us to enjoy!!! Pause for just a moment….See the beautiful formation of the clouds as they drift over the jagged Coastal shoreline. See the glistening of sun-rays dancing across the white capped waves. Feel the foaming waves of cool water washing over your feet, as treasures of the deep are washed ashore. Feel the sand between your toes & a cool gentle breeze blowing through your hair! Now listen closely…hear the roaring of the waves & the cry of Seagulls!! You have just experienced HIM!! The whole earth is filled with HIS Magnificent GLORY & Beauty!!

 The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders; where morning dawns, where evening fades, you call forth songs of joy. (Psalm 65:8)

Just outside your door awaits a world of beauty. Take a leisurely walk and enjoy the morning sunshine or maybe a moonlight stroll in the evening dew. Take note of what you see, hear and feel as God begins revealing Himself through nature. Clear your mind and set your thoughts toward Heaven! Relax, fill your heart with song as you rest in His presence. Take time to experience the JOY & the WONDER of knowing HIM!!

Depending upon where you are at in this big beautiful world…”Good Day/Good Night my Friends”!

He is a Good Father

written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever. (Psalm 118:29) 

Thankfulness is birthed when we bow our hearts; as well as our knees…When I call upon His name I find my God is always ready to listen and accept me… just as I am. For a few quiet moments I close my eyes and began opening my heart.  God lovingly begins revealing my very soul.  Suddenly I sense HIS wonderful love flowing over me.  I taste HIS Forgiveness, HIS Grace, HIS Goodness and Mercy, it’s then I know…HE is all I need!

My Friend, no matter where you have been or what you have done, the Lord is always there waiting with open arm’s, eager to forgive, always ready to love you back to His heart! Run to His presence, there you will find love and acceptance and fullness of joy, a bright hope for tomorrow and a reason to live!  HE is a good, good Father!  Be blessed by this beautiful song….

  “Fluff  Your Tu-Tu”

Ever been around a person with an abrasive personality?

Did you know…people can’t get under your skin unless you allow them to!  Recognize that some people are just plain ole self-centered energy  drainer’s!  Don’t allow yourself to be hooked into their situation’s.  Now you can’t control what others say and do, but you can control how you respond or react to certain situation’s.

So….Have a canned   response ready “Thank you for your input” and walk away or sometimes it’s best to say nothing and walk away! Realize that most often it isn’t about you but about them. But   once you react to others craziness, it then becomes about you too.

So, learn to laugh and see the humor of the situation. Next time just fluff your Tu-Tu and dance away!!

“The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;  idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:19-22)

Therefore, As God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.” (Colossians 3:12)  Be blessed by this beautiful song below…~ Healing Rain to the Nations
